MAXXI-Hadid



True to form, Zaha Hadid's long-awaited MAXXI museum in Rome is bold, demanding and provocative, says Rowan Moore.







It is clearly intended to send a message that Rome's spectacular history of architecture is not over.




It is something you can not comprehend in one go, that has to be unravelled trough walking around.





The interior makes individual experience and shared spectacle out of the flow of people through the building.


The numbers: start on site 2003/ contract duration of 9 years / gross internal floor area 30 000m2 / Total cost 150 million euros / cost per m2 5000 euros
